I propose CIMA, UK. It provide exemptions for MBA holder. How much ? You need to consult CIMA Pakistan. I guess, it will take 3 years to complete.

you will surprise to know, If you hold CIMA then you can get 18 Exemptions from ICAMP ( ACMA ). No other body like ICAP, ACCA providing you such opportunity.

See this

http//www.icmap.com.pk/pdf/sch_exempt_12122k8.pdf

You need to pass just following 3 papers to become ACMA Finalist

Stage 3 - Business Taxation
Stage 4 - Corporate Law & Secretarial Practices
Stage 5 - Financail Reporting

Other wise if you enter in ACMA after MBA, there is no guarentee to complete ACMA. Becuase ACMA is so long route.

Once you are ACMA finalist, you can support your self. You can apply for CA also.

ICAP will provide you exemption for A,B,C,D Modules ( CA Inter ). Check updated policy of ICAP for exemptions for ACMA finalist.
